Notes

Enslaved people on Fife side or Fyffeside were registered to the heirs of George Keiller in the almanac of 1816 but registered to Taylor Cathcart in the almanacs from 1818. In the compensation records this estate is called Bulstrode Farm but the numbers of enslaved people are consistent throughout the sources so it is assumed that the estate name was changed.

A group of enslaved people were transferred here by Taylor Cathcart from Petersfield estate in Manchester in the early 1820s.
